Side skirts are sods for this on these. Thats why i refuse to fit them to mine. Its unfortunate but common now.

RE: WARING RUST! - HDi--Power - 05-11-2015
Pugplus is a questionable Peugeot parts dealer, but given its an Irish car it cant have come from him. Time to get the welder out
RE: WARING RUST! - Eeyore - 05-11-2015
What? filling holes with expanding foam isnt a solution? D:

i thought it was newspaper and filler........
i mean, who has the time to cut out all the old rotten stuff, and weld good metal back in
RE: WARING RUST! - ozonehostile - 06-11-2015
Looks like the hole I repaired on my 6,seem to be caused by mongs jacking the car off the hollow sill on metal less than 1mm thick, cracks, water gets in then rots the sill from the inside out all hidden by the skirt. Matts rallye was the same too

Newspaper and filler is old skool nowadays! A friend bought a car a while back, it took a couple of years to show up but a large "repair" with expanding foam and filler showed itself in the end. Nothing really changes when it comes to bodging!

Someone had 'fixed' the chassis rails like that on a HDi I bought last year!
RE: WARING RUST! - Paul Baldwin - 06-11-2015
Look at the plus sides, it's lighter and if you do like Dum-Dum did it'll float itself out of trouble
RE: WARING RUST! - karl1989 - 06-11-2015
Look at my old progress thread of my ph1. That had rust

They go there even without side skirts, it's just most cars are only just getting to the age where it shows, as unfortunately it goes from the inside out.
Expect to see a lot more similar in the next few years!
RE: WARING RUST! - Matt - 08-11-2015
Too g to be checking mine out now! Scares the crap out of me

RE: WARING RUST! - Ben_w - 16-11-2015
Fibreglassed???????
RE: WARING RUST! - Redordead89 - 16-11-2015
By no heater do you mean no power to fan so switch does nowt or no heat from blower when on?
RE: WARING RUST! - Toms306 - 16-11-2015
Should've scrapped it before fixing rust tbh, sounds like a heap.
Now you've put time and money into that, only way you'll get it back is to fix and sell now.

I.E - Bodged it!
Still, not to worry, it's only one of the main structural bits in the car...

That was my worry......
All the rust ony Rallye number two got cut out and we used chassis and sill cuts from a scrapper to repair...
RE: WARING RUST! - Rippthrough - 16-11-2015
I think the sill repair on mine will still be there after the car has dissolved in the rain tbfh.
RE: WARING RUST! - Eeyore - 16-11-2015
is the title of this meant to be warning rust or waring rust?
RE: WARING RUST! - pugtk - 17-11-2015
Looks like a typical D-turbo
Usually bodged together
RE: WARING RUST! - meridianman - 17-11-2015
What did you decide; scrap or repair?
